Chapter
Managing Your Calendar
The DROID makes the old calendar that used to hang on the fridge obsolete. In this
chapter, we will show you how to utilize the
Calendar
app of the DROID to its full
potential. We will show you how to schedule appointments, how to manage multiple
calendars, how to change views on your calendar, and even how to deal with meeting
invitations.
NOTE: For most of this chapter, we will talk about syncing your DROID calendar with another
calendar because it is nice to have your calendar accessible on your DROID and other places. If
you choose, you can also use your DROID in a standalone mode, where you do not sync to any
other calendar. In the latter case, all the steps we describe for events, viewing, and managing
events still apply equally to you.
Managing Your Busy Life on Your DROID
The Calendar app is a powerful and easy-to-use application that helps you manage
your appointments, keep track of what you have to do, set reminder alarms, and even
create and respond to meeting invitations for Microsoft
Exchange
users.
Accessing Your Calendar
The Calendar icon is usually visible once you touch your Launcher icon.
Once all applications are visible on the Home screen, scroll to the
Calendar
icon.
